[5/5] meson: wire up benchmarking options

Commit Message

Patrick Steinhardt March 31, 2025, 6:16 a.m. UTC

Wire up a couple of benchmarking options that we end up writing into our
"GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS" file. These options allow users to control how
exactly benchmarks are executed.

Note that neither `GIT_PERF_MAKE_COMMAND` nor `GIT_PERF_MAKE_OPTS` are
exposed as a build option. Those options are used by "t/perf/run", which
is not used by Meson.
